Last week a few people pointed out to me that I was becoming obsessed with the number on the scale. I knew I was. I gained .5, and then stayed the same, and I stressed, and I worried, and I stressed some more. And on Friday, I gained some more- a whole 2 pounds. The …

2 weeks ago my losing streak came to a very sudden halt for what felt like absolutely no reason. It put me in the worst, most uncontrollable mood I’ve come across in a long time. After the first gain of .5lbs, I didn’t want to be at my Weight Watchers meeting (even though this month …

At weigh in yesterday I was up half a pound. After the scale I thought about that morning; standing in front of the mirror brushing my teeth, feeling like my stomach was finally starting to get smaller (maybe because it was morning) and wondered how I could feel smaller when I had gained. When the …

It’s official; I’m now within a healthy weight range. If I wanted to, I could stop losing now and maintain my weight, not have to pay for Weight Watchers and be considered healthy. Of course, my aim has always been to be healthy AND fit, so I don’t plan to stop here. Picking a goal …

When I started this blog as excited as I was, one of my worries was that I’d only be able to write about losing weight. I’m Fit Me Baby and that’s what I’ll have to talk about, getting fit and losing weight. How do you stick to one subject when you have so much to …

Over the weekend I had my 24th Birthday. Having spent 24 years on this earth, I got to thinking about what I’ve learned, especially in the last few years. If you’ve read my Fit Me Baby bio, you probably know that I’ve been here and there in my life. Unlike many of my friends I …

“No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path” – Buddha Fitness and a healthy lifestyle have made me stronger physically, but the past few years have made me tougher mentally and emotionally. Something you should understand about me is that I did not walk …

Firstly, I’d like to make it clear that I have no regrets about this past weekend. Having spent 2 years of my life intensely focusing on healthy eating and exercise, I don’t let cheat weekends here and there get to me anymore. This May long weekend we were invited up to a friend’s property at …

As I’ve mentioned before, the fearlessness and drive to try new things when you’re living a fit life is amazing. Two years ago I didn’t really exercise, never mind testing out different classes at local rec centres for fun. On Monday night my two girlfriends and I finally made it to the cardio kickboxing class …

This past weekend my boyfriend and I woke up early on a Saturday morning, grabbed a coffee, and hit the road to hike 8km around beautiful Buntzen Lake. I used to loathe hiking. I was always the slow one at the back, huffing and puffing and praying to god that it was almost over. This …

Hi! I'm Leah, your average formerly fat friend. I joined Weight Watchers in 2013 and lost 62lbs on the program. I discovered a love for fitness and weight lifting along the way and haven't looked back. From my heaviest at 204lbs, to my current weight of 135lbs, I'm learning to maintain my weight loss, manage a very busy life, and live it to it's fullest. Join me on my journey, and all the craziness that comes along with it.
